Been looking for a plate and pin ground anchor for ages that wasn't
too pricey. Finally found a guy selling one based in London. Looked
into getting it couriered but the total weight was 60kg which even
using Shiply came out at £60!!
Feck it I thought I can get there in my lunch break. So today I Bought
a foldable 90kg sack barrow for £40 and a roll of gaffer tape and got
on the tube.
Got there taped all 8 stone of it onto the barrow and set off back.
Feck me it was heavy. Dragged it half a mile to the tube station, 20
minutes in the tube, half a mile back to work then a mile back to
Waterloo from work at the end of the day.
Got train home then cab from the station for a fiver.
Finally after many moments of thinking it was s harebrained idea
(particularly when I has to drag it over a dug up section of
pavement!) it's home and packed in the back of the surf!!
My arms ache my legs ache but it Cost £15 less than the courier and I
have a sack barrow for hauling containers for veg around.
Tidy.
